About WELLNESS WORKs:
Wellness is the integration, balance and harmony of an individual's mental, physical, emotional, social and spiritual self, resulting in a positive state of well-being.

The themes in Jean Steel's presentations—self-responsibility, looking at the bright side, finding your passion and having a zest for living were issues she learned firsthand early in life. She and her siblings moved overseas at an early age, following her father's passion. Being raised in Africa and Asia gave her an appreciation of life very different than most Americans. That environment created the person Jean is today—able to appreciate "the good things we have going on" that we most often take for granted and recognize the perfect moments in our lives.
